Demand Congress Back Down On Privacy Intrusion
by Ron Paul. The FBI tells us that its demand for a back door into the iPhone is all about fighting terrorism, and that it is essential to break in just this one time to find out more about the San Bernardino attack last December. But the truth is they had long sought a way to break Apple’s iPhone encryption and, like 9/11 and the Patriot Act, a mass ... MOREKatie Kieffer: Apple Is On Your Side
Somebody has to protect individual liberty. Obama’s order for Apple to let him hack your iPhone is not about
fighting terror—it’s about iPhone dominion. This is the equivalent of
gun control except in the tech sector. Terrorism is one of the top two

why and how Obama’s ... MORE

MOREAndrew Napolitano: Hillary Clinton's False Hopes
The indictment of the nominee. Surely, Hillary Clinton hopes for the happy conclusion to the maddening string of primaries and caucuses that have exhausted her.

MORETed Rall: What The Apple Vs FBI Flap Is Really About

Liberty and safety are not in equipoise. There is nothing new in the realization that the Constitution sometimes insulates the criminality of a few in order to protect the privacy of us all.” -Justice Antonin Scalia (1936-2016). After the San Bernardino massacre on Dec. 2, 2015, the FBI lawfully acquired the cellphone of one of the killers and ... MOREThe FBI's Big Farce To Get Inside Your Phone
by Joshua Kopstein. “The most important tech case in a decade.” Earlier this week, the U.S. government dropped a bombshell in its ongoing crusade against strong encryption: A court order demanding that Apple help the Federal Bureau of Investigation bypass the security features of an iPhone recovered from Syed Rizwan Farook, who, along with his ... MOREThe Apple-FBI Fight Isn’t About Privacy Vs. Security
by Brian Barrett. Do not be misled. Throughout the ongoing fight between Apple and the FBI over custom access to an iPhone used by one of the two terrorists who killed 14 people in San Bernardino, the government has framed the argument as a simple trade-off: You must surrender a little privacy if you want more security. The scales don't balance quite ... MOREFast And Furious Court Victory For Judicial Watch

complex investigation into the Obama administration’s deadly Operation
Fast and Furious scandal. And this is one story that should be shared

isn't about trying to set a precedent or send any kind of message." ... MOREOver 50 Rallies Take Place In US Cities To Support Apple

MORERand Paul Weighs In On The Apple-FBI Dispute
by Elias J. Atienza. Senator Rand Paul (R-KY) told
CN2 that Apple shouldn’t be compelled to hack the encrypted iPhone of
San Bernadino shooter, Syed Farook. Apple has strongly opposed a court
ordered request by the FBI to open the phone, citing that it could

But gov't wants the keys to ALL phones. Using an obscure law, written in 1789 — the All Writs Act — the US
government has ordered Apple to place a back door into its iOS software
so the FBI can decrypt information on an iPhone used by one of the San
Bernardino shooters. It has finally come to this. After years of arguments by virtually ... MOREObama May Be Ensnared In The Clinton Email Scandal
by Jonathan F. Keller. Perhaps President Obama’s involvement is the reason that the FBI has not yet referred charges to the Justice Department in the Hillary Clinton email case.
